Good to see the loco working again.
Shame it's got historically incorrect British Railways number/crest - if they wanted to make up a new number/livery why not put in K&WVRY livery?

Three's another thread from autumn when it was steamed at an event weekend.
The livery is only temporary, and is believed to be a deliberate dig at those who are quick to complain but never donate money or time!
Personally I think it looks rather smart in BR black, and I'll have to admit that if one was ever produced in N scale, I'd have to repaint it in LNER Wartime Black

I also understood BR black was a "dig", hence suggestion to put it in orange/black K&WVRPS livery!! Like most people I can't support every loco appeal.
